KTM RC8

pguenet · 27-Sep-2004, 21:37

Guys,

Is it just me or the KTM RC8 really looks the business?

As far as I am concerned this is how the 999 should have looked or how the replacement of the 999 should look, a pure mean machine. Put the KTM picture next to a 999 and you'll see what I mean.

Shame that a brand that has no culture of big sports bike is showing the way and not Ducati. Oh well Terblanche is probably gonna make some Scrambler next!!

KTM is the next coolest brand on the block IMO!

Cheers

The KTM Adventurers are smart, as their dirt bikes but i'm not sold on the RC8 at the moment, but then again i'm stuck in a time warp and think nothing betters the 916/996/998, and i still wear flares (from the 70's)
